Depression Disorders

Depression affects more people than is often reflected in the data, and its impact is undeniable. More individuals are reporting lower levels of life satisfaction than ever before.

While the reasons for this dissatisfaction can vary, a lack of understanding about the symptoms and behavioral expressions of depression may lead some to suffer from it without even realizing.

In addition to persistent sadness, which is commonly associated with depression, there are other symptoms that may not be immediately recognized. Here are a few that should be considered:

• Persistent irritability and anger
• Sleep disturbance
• Physical aches and pains
• Low energy
• Negative thought patterns
• And many others

You don’t have to accept this suffering! There are effective treatment strategies through depression counseling that can help free you from these emotionally draining symptoms.

We integrate techniques from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Person-Centered Therapy to identify the thoughts and experiences fueling these destructive symptoms and emotions.
